We have made a few Extraets from those Ktpers, but they do not contain any news Of importance. Tirra morning a Mail arrived from Malta, by which we have received the following intelligence : " GIBRALTAR, APRIL 16.—His Majesty's Frigate 4Partatt sent it) a boat on the t tth inst. with lure!- , ligenee that, on the Ist, she had fallen in with a l ' r e4eh Squadron, of ten Sail of the Line, under the So uth end of Sardinia, steering to the westward . 'under a heavy press of canvas ; on making them out to be enemies, Captain BRENTON dispatched his launch to land an Officer on the nearest point of to proceed to Lord COLLINGWOOD with the intelligence, and then to make. the best of her way t . te r I ‘ l4ll l. From the winds whi c h h a d prevailed t his boat had quitted him, Capt. BRENTON 18 of ° P l uieo she must have reached • Girgenti in A hours after. 1 )5 the Convoy from Malta , we learn, that an r'2'l)reas had been rece i ve d by Si r A. I.lAt.t, from the il ritlsll dice Consul •at Penteleria, purporting that 4 31 '1 4,1 dron of to Sail of Line-of-Battle Ship% French auk' Spaniards, with .50- Transports, had passed that I'Nand on the 28th Feb. steering to the Eastward. A Spanish Beat is said to heve landed at Peuteleria from the Squadron. ._s4 • it ay the P r i ze Master of a Spanish Brig, cap tured by his Majesty's Ship imperieuse, we , also lear n! that that Ship, on Thursday last, fell in with 'strange Lineof-battle Ship and a Frigate, by which , she was chased under the Coast of Barbary; near Al giers. Lord COCHRANE had landed on the N.W. Part of Minorca, and blown up a• fort which had. I been construaed by General Fox, for the defence °I a Roadstead where it was situated." Private Letters state, that in consequence of I li, intellige nce , L or d C OLLINGWOOD came down '4 Mediterranean, and was off Port 11ahon on the t 'th April, but not finding the Enemy there, re-: 4rn ed. We h ave very little doubt that ou r f ormer st c 4te m"nt. will prove to be cbrr e a, and that the 1.-,.. 111314 ed Squadrons ate now blockaded in the P o rt Loulo o , • Th e 0 ` l overnor-General of Catalonia, Count Es- LETA ' has written a very strong letter to the rench General DUHEM, complaining of his =duet la Ying in large stores of provisions in the Spanish °rts occupied by the FrenCh Troops. This &Ilea- HZ!' he Says, is painted and offensive, and'requests e French General to apply for the opinion of Buo- Noatera upon. the subjea. time. «:...... A very gallant attempt was lately made bye party of men belonging to the Raven Sloop of War. Cap tain GRANT, of that Ship, whose loss of the use of one of his arms by a wound forms no obstacle to his attempting the most gallant and hazardous enter priZes, lauded, about three weeks ago, •at the head of fifty-two men, at Figuera, on the coast of Por tugal. They succeeded - in spiking the first battery, ,and would havogot possession of the. town and ship ping, which was the obje4 .of the enterprize, had not their Boats been unfortunately overwhelmed and stove by the surf, which rendered their firearms and ammunition useless. In order to save himself and his men- from being made prisoners, Captain GRANT, 'with that promptitude of mind so charac teristic of a British Officer, compelled a body of POr tuguese to launch two of their Boats,. and carry the, English off to their Ship ; which was accomplished without the logs of a man,. et- even of 'a . bayonet. They took off with them the arms belonging to . the (=finds stationed in the fort. This attempt dis plays so much good coati& as well as gallantry,• that it must serve' to place 'Captain GuANT's name high in. the list of naval heroes. . , ....•••••11.111111.1, ! it. 11 T e "erday 1.. her M AJEV e r h e ld a Drawing-Room at atte u n a d rnles Palac e , w hi c h was the most numerously i -- e" fora considerable time pa s t.
